| - We have driven by this restaurant numerous times and quite honestly, would never have stopped in had it not been suggested as a meet-up place prior to a UYE being held across the street.
Being new to Korean food, I left it to our dinner companions (who were clearly well versed in the menu items) to make our selections for the evening.
To start, an assortment of small dishes arrived containing Bean Sprouts, Pickled Cucumber, Pickled Radish, Kimchi and Potatoes in Soya Sauce (which was fantastic!) and a decanter of cold Barley tea.
For our main we had the Grilled Sliced Beef with Pork Bone Soup and ate family style. Now I suspect that it was intended for us to cook our OWN meal however, I do believe one of our dinner companions (you know who you are!) actually guilted the owner into cooking it for us! ;)
The beef was seasoned nicely and cooked perfectly with onion, garlic, carrots and mushrooms. I chose to have mine over rice but lettuce was also provided if you wished to prepare a wrap, of sorts.
The Pork Bone Soup was brilliant. There's a little work involved in getting the meat off the bone but sometimes playing with your food just adds to the experience. The broth was incredible... rich with flavour. I think this one could become a favourite!
Overall, we had a lovely time. The restaurant is quite small seating only about 30 or so but it's quite 'homey' and just a pleasant place to be.
